The summit was an accomplishment, for sure. I have serious issues with some of the particulars of how it was handled, however.
Also however, I'll note that damn near everything else he's done has been pretty shitty, with even shittier undertones, and further, I note that a broken clock is right twice a day - so let's see how it turns out. I expect given North Korea's history that not much will come of it. That's not even a slam against Trump so much as it is against NK.
Even if Kim Jong-un is serious about the talks, he ought to be really skeptical of the Trump administration after pulling out of the agreement with Iran and elsewhere. At the moment, the administration can't be trusted, and the rest of the world knows it.
